Overview

As an Agency Program Coordinator, you’re familiar with the various details involved with implementing and managing your agency’s travel card program. Now, with the introduction of the Visa Travel Card Controls Gauge, it can be easier than ever to determine if your program is in compliance with regulations or if it needs adjustments to meet those regulations. Developed to help your agency identify opportunities to increase control in the specific areas of travel card program design, administration, and security, the Travel Card Controls Gauge is comprised of three key components:

Comprehensive Questionnaire: a survey consisting of 26 questions

Questionnaire Results: answers and relevant legislation based on your responses

This questionnaire has been designed for all agencies (federal, state, local governments and universities), but all questions may not apply to your particular agency. Please note that the Travel Card Controls Gauge has been created specifically for internal use by your agency; your responses will not be retained or used by Visa for any purpose.

Benefits of Using the Travel Card Controls Gauge

After completing the questionnaire, you’ll be presented with two outputs:

The Travel Card Controls Results Summary captures each question, your responses, your comments, and excerpts from both relevant legislation and emerging travel card program best practices.

The Travel Card Controls Improvement Plans identify opportunities that your agency may wish to consider to help improve your travel card program. For each statement selected throughout the questionnaire, the Plans will provide information on: the section of your program (i.e. Program Design, etc.), the identification of the improvement opportunity, expected benefits of implementation, and relevant legislation.

Upon completion of the survey, downloadable Excel versions of the above documents will also be available. Shared with your colleagues or used as program guidance tools, these can serve as working documents. The Excel format files will allow you to input comments, and assign owners and due dates associated with specific program elements.
